BroModel Advance Purchase Info/Topsheet Announcement
It’s time. PM Gear is proud to announce a totally maggot price for advance purchase of the BroModel, our new kickass powder ski that slays every condition the mountains can serve up. The ski discussed amongst Maggots for years, designed, built, and field-tested by Maggots, creams powder and every other snow variable on the mountains. A 188 length with a shallow sidecut for steeps (125-99-114), the BroModels possess the maneuverability and edging of a shaped ski, arc long turns like a GS ski, and maintain the stability of a downhill ski. All in one pair of boards.
It is stiff, yet provides the versatility and turning of a much softer ski due to a unique tip construction stable enough to mach without deflection, but soft enough to engage flex throughout the entire ski. Damp and stable for high speed railing, a thicker core underfoot and two layers of vibration dampening rubber in the ski make it feel thinner and longer, but it's not. With enough square inches underfoot to float the deepest lightest powder on the planet, the BroModel has burly Rockwell 48 edges and will have a thicker black sintered base than almost every ski on the market. And at half the price of it's nearest competitor, there will be no comparison in either price or performance.
For the next 20 days, Maggots can purchase the ski for $450, plus shipping. BroModels will be shipped late September/October before the season begins. Prices after this period will be $535, sorry, no exceptions can be made after that date (8/20/04), as the ski will likely be sold out in short order due to the limited production.
The topsheet design the BroModel will bear is MD9’s blue topsheet (displayed below) with the plane on the tip. The worldwide brotherhood responsible for the origin of this ski is communicated in the world pattern on the skis. It is an instrument of peace, brotherhood, and flying through the mountains on snow for the love of all life and the pursuit of ecstasy. And a tribute to the brotherhood of skiers here.
BroModels will carry a one-year warranty, listed below in really small print.
